We have always recognised the special responsibility we hold as one of the UK’s most successful independent social businesses. We have a duty to deliver wider benefits to society, above and beyond the provision of social housing and those responsibilities are firmly embedded within L&Q’s ‘Future Shape’, our five year corporate strategy 2021-2026.

An excellent opportunity has arisen for a passionate, self-motivated sustainability professional to play an instrumental role in developing and implementing L&Q’s environmental sustainability programme. Reporting to the Head of Environment, you will support the Group in driving progress across its three strategic focus areas for environmental sustainability:

• Climate Action – decarbonising our homes and activities, while futureproofing our business, residents and communities against the impacts of climate change;
• Resource Efficiency – using resources more efficiently and minimising the amount of waste produced during the construction, refurbishment and day-to-day management of operational assets; and
• Healthy Places – maximising shared value by creating places that are healthy for both people and planet.

The successful candidate will have a track record in successfully managing sustainability projects and the ability to work collaboratively with internal and external stakeholders to generate positive outcomes.

If you believe you have the qualities we are after and are interested in working for an organisation that makes a difference to people’s lives we want to hear from you.

Essential skills:

• Experience in the implementation of a sustainability programme for a large organisation
• Experience of delivering an Environmental Management System, ISO14001 or equivalent
• Strong engagement and stakeholder management skills
• Proven quantitative, analytical and problem-solving capabilities
• Project management skills
• Strong communication skills and an ability to explain complex ideas in simple terms
• Proficiency with data management and reporting tools (e.g. Microsoft PowerBI, Excel)
• Presentation and report writing skills to produce outputs for senior stakeholders

If you are interested in this role and have the experience required, then apply without delay!

At the foundation of everything that we do are our corporate values and associated behaviours. Our organisational behavioural framework outlines the core expectations of all employees, which should be demonstrated at all times when representing L&Q.
